Oh, yeah. I've been sucking up to Rick so I can bug out to his place and die eating tons of Twinkies. :innocent:
I am prepping for whatever happens.... As for 2012.... Kinda like the millenium scare? Or the big Quake that was supposed to level the new madrid fault back in 1990/91...... ? I personally think it's just another scare tactic.
Frankly, I'm more afraid of the people who are afraid of 2012.
this has been discussed recently.
am I preparing? yes
am I preparing for a 2012 cataclysm? no
12/21/2012 is simply the end of the Mayan calendar. Our roman calendar ends every year without cataclysm. 12/31/2009 isn't doomsday and neither will 12/21/2012 be.
I'm always prepared. I just hope I make it to 2012. I need to get through 2010 first.
Do not waste my time on that hype. In my opinion it is all about pathetic people grasping for straws (was that to strong? oh well :) ). Preparedness is a normal course of business.
The only preparation for the end of the world I'm making is to practice sticking my head between my knees and kissing my a*se goodbye.
For other eventualities I'm preparing.
I do plan on seeing the movie! :sneaky2:Quote:

I am prepared for a lot of things and I am sure there are things I am not ready for, if the world is going to end then getting ready is a moot point cause we are all gonna die, otherwise it wouldn't be the end of the world.... lol... what a joke. The world ain't going anyplace except down the crapper.
Sarge, the movie looks kinda cool but to me seems like another Day After Tomorrow, to me.
Thanks
Beo,
I can't wait for the movie to come out and then go away.... I mean its 1 thing to read 2012 theories on forums... But having 47 different 2012 specials on tv everynight is really starting to drive me crazy...
Jeepers, Nightshade, that's how the world is going to end. It's not the calendar year that will kill everyone. It's the specials and movies the Mayans were trying to warn us about.
I don't think the world is going to end, but there may be a big change in things, hence, the end of the world as we know it. (I still say it will have something to do with the November 2012 elections.):innocent:
I'm trying to be a little better prepared for the unexpected/hard times, but more in general terms....not because of a certain date.
Lol... At this point it wouldn't surprise me, definetly more realistic!Quote:

That would certainly be TEOTWAWKI.
Might as well take that cyanide tablet now.
Now that's just plain "crazy" talk!Quote:

on that new years eve you could use it as a great excuse to be with your lover like theres no tomorrow. it might be the only chance for a long time youll get to do that. who knows when the next end of the world as we know it will be expected. so take advantage of it.
Just don't confuse the cyanide for cialis.Quote:

im not preparing for 2012.
im preparing for alot of other stuff though.
i read an article not long ago about a myan leader talking about the whole 2012 thing.
he said the myans NEVER said it was going to be the end of the world.
they just simply made a point to stop where they wouldnt get lost and lose track of the date. they had always planned on making the calendar longer.
he also went on to say that he was really sick of all the 2012 questions as they have bigger problems to solve.
i myself think its strange that none of these people think that dec. 21st 2012 is an odd date for the world to end.
i mean cmon, winter solstice? really?
it makes me wonder if people in the year 1,000 did the same thing.
im betting they did.
I kinda like Beo's post, if it's the end of the world, what is there to prepare for?
Ya'll listen up. I happen to know exactly what will happen on Dec 21, 2012. Are you ready? Is your intrest peaked? Are Ya'll tensed up about it? Are you ready for "End Times"? Well here goes...NOTHING. Absolutely NOTHING will happen. We will have an opportunity to get some last minute Christmas shopping done though :). As a foot note, neither my computure nor bank account "crashed" one minute after Dec 31, 1999 at 11:59 pm. Ya'll remember that bunch of crap. Rumors cause panic. Panic causes misjudments. Misjudgments cause mistakes. Mistakes cause loss of life and property. Just relax. This too shall pass. Ya'll stay safe.
Meet your maker?Quote:

It would suck... But interesting! Always feel bad for those whose life is so bad that they actually hope for TEOTWAKI.. Kinda pathetic IMO

The 2012 thing doesn't have a bit of merit that I can see.
I even saw an interview with a Central American man who came from a tribe that was supposed to be descened from the Mayans, who was supposed to be an expert on the subject. He said there was no merit to it.
These things have been coming and going for years. You can't let them stop you from living your life. Just being reasonably prepared for whatever is likely to happen is hard enough, let alone being prepared for something that is almost guaranteed not to happen.
Hey Owl Girl, wanna go out on Dec 21, 2012? I'll pick you up around 6pm... lol... good excuse to treat it like there may be no tomorrow... lol...Quote:

OG, I was just joking (maybe depending on your answer... lol) please don't get mad or take offense.
Beo,

Yeah, I did.Quote:

They were good enough engineers to pull that off.
Anyway most if not all prophocy is give in generalisms so broadly stated that they can mean anything.
I've stocked up on Bubblicious buggle gum for the aliens, practicing head shots for the zombies, and have have a 5 gallon container of Holy water in a backpack sprayer and silver bowie knife and silver headed tomahawk for the unholy, undead, bloodsuckers and werecritters.
